Atari ST version is a poor conversion of the PC. Simple graphics, awful sound, quite slow sometimes.. seems like an amateurs job. The Amiga version on the other hand is much much better. I played Amiga version (finished) and ST version almost finished it. Nice puzzles, nice plot, a very funny game... I still remember finishing Monkey Island on my Amiga,the scene that asks u what u have to say after all.. answer I never gonna pay again 15 $ for a Lucas game hahaha
At least its there to remid the good old days
ST
Graphics 7
Sound 5
Gameplay 8
Overall 7

Considered to be an alltime classic on any plattform
I personally just don't get the point! That sort of humour is not mine - and if you don't get that, the puzzles make no sense.

As usual, Lucasfilm didn't spend much effort on the Atari ST conversion. As a result, unlike the Amiga conversion, it was given the EGA-graphics and basically only a YM version of the PC speaker soundtrack.
The EGA-graphics however have been made by Marc Ferrari (see Loom). Since EGA is bad on dark scenes, the graphics for Melee Island are a bit poor, but the later, more colourful graphics on Monkey Island are pretty good.
The game shows an animated intro screen and plays better on accelerated machines (16MHz).
